5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This is a study performed to evaluate the role of vitamin D supplementation on the strength of levator ani muscle in menopausal women with pelvic organ prolapse
Detailed Description
Forty eight POP women were divided into experimental and control groups in this quasi-experimental study. The experimental group was given 0.5 mcg alfacalcidol orally for three months. We measured levator ani muscle strength, serum 25-hydroxy-vitamin D3 levels, and serum Vitamin D Receptor (VDR) levels at zero months and three months preoperative. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) assessed VDR and myoblast determination protein 1 (MyoD) protein expressions in levator ani muscle surgical biopsies.
